"This morning I woke up to terror such as I have never experienced before: I was entirely stripped of feeling. Everything was gone; it was as if I had lost something that had been entrusted to me the previous evening, something I was supposed to take special care of overnight. I was in the position of someone who has been assigned to guard an entire sleeping army but suddenly finds himself mysteriously blinded, deaf, and effaced. Everything was gone. I was completely empty, without pain, without pleasure, without longing, without love, without warmth and friendship, without anger, without hate. Nothing, nothing was there anymore, leaving me like a suit of armor with no knight inside. It took a long time before I even felt alarmed."
- Werner Herzog, Conquest of the Useless (via darkhorsewhiteponies)

"In the immediate vicinity of the horses, there are figures overlapping with each other. The striking point is that, in cases like this, after carbon-dating, there are strong indications that some overlapping figures were drawn almost five thousand years apart. The sequence and duration of time is unimaginable for us today. We are locked in history, and they were not."
- Werner Herzog, “On the Chauvet Cave” in Cave of Forgotten Dreams, 2010 (via nickkahler)
